The new users-admin is not really best designed for systems with
hundreds of users, since it takes more vertical space than the old one:
see the column on the left of the dialog at [1]. I'm not sure that's a
real problem, though. What we could do is sort users by login, and use
gtk_tree_view_set_search_column() so that you can type-ahead the
beginning of the login to find an user. How does that sound to you and
Edubuntu people?

(Anyway, the biggest problem for now is that we don't support LDAP, but
that's another story...)

This bug is not high in my priority list since I have to fix all
regressions before we enter feature/UI/string freeze, and then I'll
start tackling this kind of little issues.
